It works
By roger
I bought this blade to cut a huge amount of aluminum picture frame molding on my table saw and will continue to use it for this purpose. After much tinkering with my miter sled, it makes perfect cuts every time. The main problem to solve is the flying chips -- they are EVERYWHERE, and you certainly don't want them in your face (wear good eye protection!). After consulting the staff at Woodcraft, it was agreed that running the dust collector was not a good idea -- the aluminum chips could harm it. So, shielding the blade tightly was very important. I ended up with a removable box type jig with a plexiglass top, weather stripping around the edges, and a shop vac connection-- it all fits over the blade like a guard and is easily removed between cuts. While this doesn't get everything, it does confine it. Miter cuts in wood moulding have none of this problem and the dust collector gets most of the sawdust.From what I have read, lubricating the blade about every 5 cuts with WD40 is very important. I would have liked to see more info on this -- no user instructions come with the blade -- perhaps a suggestion as to how often to lubricate in linear feet of cut. Also, be sure you shield the blade the first time you start the saw after applying the WD40 -- it does fly!Admittedly, I had never cut aluminum before, so these issues might not be a problem for a more experienced user. But once solved, the cuts are excellent, and that's the important thing.

I have been looking for a good non-ferrous metal cutting saw for some time.This saw blade cuts aluminum extrusions cleanly with no burrs.Creating metal picture frames is now faster and more profitable.
